Ingredients
  

  • 8 chicken drumsticks about 2 1/2 pounds
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons honey

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

  1. Mix mustard, honey, oil, vinegar, garlic powder and salt. Reserve 2 tablespoons in a clean bowl for finishing. Coat drumsticks with the rest and refrigerate 15 minutes.
  2. Heat oven to 425°F. Lift chicken from marinade and arrange on a foil-lined rimmed pan. Discard used marinade.
  3. Roast 35–45 minutes, turning halfway, until at least 165°F away from bone. Brush with reserved clean glaze during the final 5 minutes. If browning too quickly, tent loosely with foil. Rest 5 minutes.
